## Manufacturing

Quanta Computer Inc. and Wistron, which are original design manufacturers (ODM), manufacturers the hardware, motherboard, and design of the dv2000 series of laptops alongside the dv6000 and dv9000 series (as well as other HP laptops made by HP at the time). Quanta and Wistron have also manufactured their equivalent Compaq Presario-branded models, which were different in design but using similar hardware. This was a common practice by many other brands of the era.

## Hardware issues

HP has identified hardware issues with certain HP Pavilion dv2000/dv6000/dv9000 and Compaq Presario V3000/V6000 series notebook PCs equipped with Nvidia chipsets, most of them with AMD microprocessors. For the dv2000 series, this includes many models from the dv20xx, dv21xx, dv22xx, dv23xx, dv24xx, dv25xx, dv26xx, dv27xx, and the dv28xx series (where xx is any other 2 digits). Many of these issues were caused by overheating, a common problem with many of these HP laptops of this timeframe (as well as other manufacturers).
Some symptoms include:
* Missing wireless connections (No wireless networks detected by the laptop and the wireless adapter is absent from Device Manager).
* Video card or graphics chipset failures (No video from either the LCD display or on the external monitor).
* Sound system, optical drive and/or hard drive problems.
The Intel-based dv2000 series with Core Solo, Core Duo, Core 2 Duo or Pentium Dual Core processors and Intel 945 chipsets are mostly resistant from these issues, except for those with dedicated Nvidia video chips.
